Interesting how few people use non-LTS releases. Even a 4 year old LTS release is more popular. Stats from a snap I maintain.

Wondering why you would use a non lts version?
If anyone does, I would like to know.
I have considered using one because a few bugs or missing features I encounter are caused by older versions of a software (e.g. old version of imagemagick not supporting animated AVIF) and I want to stick to the stable official packages instead of custom builds or PPAs. But I remain on LTS.
Main thing I care about is having the latest version of Gnome. Otherwise I use flatpaks for all my apps.
Why not use a rolling release distro?
I actually use Fedora Silverblue, not Ubuntu. But I still maintain the snap because it’s really easy to do and I like the app.
Aurora user here! Loving it so far, still got a lot to learn about doing desktop in containers…
